Carpentaria Palm
Similar in appearance to Christmas palm (Veitchia merrilli), Carpentaria Palm has an advantage in its faster growth. This tall, slender palm grows to 40 ft. (12m) on a single smooth grey trunk. The attractive crown is composed of 10-12 gracefully arching leaves, which are deep green on top and blue-green below. Each leaf has a pinnate or feather shape and is 5-6 ft (1.5-2 m).
Fox Tail Palm
The Foxtail Palm has one of the most spectacular foliage displays of all palms. Variance of greenish colors; deep green to light green arching fronds have leaflets that radiate out at all angles from the leaf stem, thus appearing like a bottlebrush or the tail of a fox.
